Justice decided on Friday to reopen the case of a gendarme found dead in a Lyon barracks in 2011, at the request of his family who never believed in the official thesis of suicide for personal reasons.
On January 26, the general prosecutor had requested before the investigating chamber of the Lyon Court of Appeal the reopening of a judicial investigation for "harassment" and "manslaughter".

Myriam Sakhri had, however, complained for months of being harassed by colleagues and her superiors.
A note found at his side, handwritten and written in these terms: "Thank you to G. the asshole!"
», Indicated the colonel who at the time commanded the Rhone gendarmerie.
The soldier worked there within the Operations and Intelligence Center (Corg), a service responsible for responding to calls from the public.
